We joined the action on a board, with Nicky Evans having bet 2,700 from his seat in the big blind. The only other active player in the hand was Men "The Master" Nguyen who was seated under the gun. Nguyen wasted little time in calling Evans' bet and the cards were turned onto their backs.
Evans: for not very much at all.
Nguyen: for two pair, queens and nines.
